PROCESS AND SYSTEM TO CONVERT METHANOL TO LIGHT OLEFIN, GASOLINE AND DISTILLATE

摘要

The present invention provides a process for forming a refined hydrocarbon that includes providing a feed including methanol (10), dimethyl ether or a mixture thereof, and contacting the feed with a methanol conversion catalyst (30) under suitable conditions to yield an intermediate composition (40) including olefins having at least two carbon atoms. The intermediate composition is introduced to an oligomerization catalyst (70) under suitable conditions to yield gasoline boiling range components (40) and distillate boiling range components (130).
